15:01 Wow, that is impressive-fifty feet at a time, two hundred and fifty acres daily. Significant changes from a John Deere 45 with a ten-foot head and a great day combining twenty acres a day. Great video.
The length of that unloading auger! Mind-boggling. Something about the placement of the lights at the top of the cab remind me of the original batmobile...I'm probably the only one that thinks that. LOL

If you can eat it at the dinner table, thank a farmer. If it’s on the shelves at the grocery store, thank a truck driver or a train engineer. If you can eat in peace, thank a veteran.
It has advanced tremendously in the past 20 years. The first MacDon I filed was a 36ft model in 2003 on a 9750 STS in wheat and it seemed huge at the time.
Efficiency in time use especially during harvesting (my own experience on a small grain farm) is so important, time is money, optimal conditions are rarer than one would be think if you want it to go straight into a bin. My dad spent most days on the Gleaner, with a New Holland helping, many nights spent running the dryer. To grab 50' at a time wow, but when does $$$ spent in the name of efficiency become too much? Million dollar combines are real and must be near that limit.
I just bought a fd250 to run on a 8250! Hopefully I don’t have to much header! Worries me if it’ll have enough power when cutting 130 bushel wheat to the ground to windrow straw out in California next summer
Would like to know what kind of losses they experience with that head, and also the combine. Does that type of head eliminate the need for a wind system like the Crary Wind System?
I did not observe very much loss at all in the field. The Ideal and MacDon made an effective harvesting team. I do not no sny farms in WKY running a Draper with an air reel. The Draper handles the crop well
Question - what’s the hp range for a Class 8 combine rating? You mentioned this Fendt is a Class 8 rated at 538 engine hp, but the JD S790 (543 hp) and CaseIH 9250 (550 hp) are rated as Class 9 combines.
The rated horsepower of the Ideal 8 is 470 hp. The maximum is 538 hp. So it is a class 8 combine. The class 8 category is starting on 430 hp and it going to 500 hp.
Impressive and thanks for another video. A 60 footer Honeybee head would even be more impressive looking and I wonder why none are running here in America. There are a fair number of Midwest 60 foot heads running in Auz land and a few 60 foot Honeys running up in Canada.
It would be great to see the Honey Bee in the US. It may depend on terrain and yields. Here in KY wheat yields 100 bu an acre. A Deere S790 with a 45ft head will run 2.5 mph in wheat. The power and capacity of the combine is maxed in good wheat at 45ft.
I've used a John Deere 635D 35' rigid draper head to harvest wheat and milo on my bosses farm in Sumner County Kansas near Conway Springs. The combine I used was a John Deere 9660 STS Bullet Rotor combine.
It is amazing how prices have changed. The equipment has grown up size and ability too. In 1998 30ft on the header and 250 bu. on the combine we’re as big as it went.
Thank you for watching. Good question. There are no laws restricting the length of farm equipment. At 50ft this header on a transport wagon is as long as typical semi truck.
The 8T is the midsized model. The 10T at 790 Hp is the top end Fendt. I have a video on the 10T with joy stick steering in wheat harvest posted at ruclips.net/video/UBFJukRMbVw/видео.html
I did not observe any issues filming. The header had a nice clean cut. There were allot of soybean leaves on the ground prior to harvest from a recent harvest. I do not know anyone in WKY who requires an air reel for their Draper. I saw little grain loss and there were not any beans hitting the combine windshield from shatter.
@@bigtractorpower it was fun to learn from Cole the cornstar how much the air reel saves the dry soybeans. I think it was decieving the silver part of the reel you could see vs the extra circumference where the teeth were. I had to watch it twice to see my error. Great video, thanks bigtractorpower for all the great content & I look forward to the next ont.
The performance of harvesting the crop quickly and well is big plus. This farm raises winter winter wheat and double crop soybeans. Soybeans are planted right behind the combine as its harvesting wheat. Two crops from one field in one year is a big help.
Most farmers run a lease program through their local dealership. Lease a unit for 2-3 years and when it ends they lease another (possibly newer) machine. I doubt most farmers are writing a check for the full cost of the combine and head.
It seems like whatever class the Fendt is in its almost too big for that class. I wonder when someone will come out with a folding grain platform? Who'll be first? I like the 1050 Kinze Harvest Commander too. Kinze is my favorite grain cart especially the 1050 on tracks. Thanks Jason 👍🏻.
Matthew both Geringoff and Capello offer folding grain heads in Europe. You can see the Geringoff fold up in this short video m.ruclips.net/video/DeRLMOl07Co/видео.html
Lexions too don't really fit in the class system for combines, you got class 7 Claas Lexion combines staying with or beating Deeres and Case machines one or two classes higher
He needs too talk too the Mitchels in Canada about that Arendt. If thy did not fix the gearbox problem he regret the day he was bragging about that combine
@@farmerjohnson8121 know another farmer in south Dakota has three of the bigger fends and they are very unhappy with them to lightly built bearings on out repairing all the time

Uh, John Deere makes a 50ft draper as well

A 50ft head is impressive👍 nice to see an ideal combine in the field, thanks for the video😉👍
You'd have to have an awful level field to run 50 ft wide
Duane these new headers flex allot. rolling Terrain is not an issue.
Morning Jason! Awesome equipment buddy... Thank you
Good morning. Thank you for watching.
Impressive indeed. Nice machine and excellent harvesting speeds.
👋 hey 👋 from Dexter,Missouri my friend.
Super awesome video.
Have a super awesome night 🌉 be safe.
Thank you for watching.
Geez Jason!! That is one monster header and combine! That auger is crazy long. Another one of those combines that can unload right to the grain bin!
The size and ability of the Ideal combines allow them to cruise right through the acres with ease.

We've had a 45 ft Macdonald on the old 760tt lexion and purchases a new 8600 and using same head. Works very well.
How do you like the 8600 for beans, we run a 7500, just wondering if it's any better
I’m a little surprised the 50ft would be paired with a 8 class, but it looked like it handled it good.
I was too. The 8T moved along with ease.
Incredible watching such a great piece of equipment.
Love it
Keep it coming
Thank you for watching.
That's an impressive machine
The John Deere X9 1100 is more impressive
@@ROCK-s1t no it isn’t. The X9 can hold more, and do more acres to the hour
Awesome combination to watch!!
They just cruise through the acres with ease.
Was an awesome combine always loved doing beans
Another great video Jason! Peter

That pipe coming out at 2:35. It's so long....like it's capable of handling 60+ foot headers. 🤔
Very nice Jason!
Thank you for watching.
That's a whole lot of machinery
Next year we will have a gleaner s97 with an fd235 macdon.
Thanks for keeping up new vids, even through the dust storm that is the yearly Soybean Harvest. I know you were getting dusted out during filming.
Thank you for watching. Soybean harvest is my least favorite season to film. The dust is tough.
I just bought a fd250 to run on a 8250! Hopefully I don’t have to much header! Worries me if it’ll have enough power when cutting 130 bushel wheat to the ground to windrow straw out in California next summer
and to think in australia theyre up past 60ft headers
I thank this maybe my neighbors down in the Fulton county river bottoms?
That is where it was filmed. Go Kentucky 👍👍
Is planting after this harvest going on or is the two crops per year every second year!
The unloading auger is one heck of a length but the header is huge,surely they wont be able to make them any wider will they? Great video though!
I think 60ft drapers and 24 row corn heads are the next step. Thank you for watching.
Would like to know what kind of losses they experience with that head, and also the combine. Does that type of head eliminate the need for a wind system like the Crary Wind System?
Looks like it was doing a pretty good job as is.
I did not observe very much loss at all in the field. The Ideal and MacDon made an effective harvesting team. I do not no sny farms in WKY running a Draper with an air reel. The Draper handles the crop well
I run a john deere x9 1000 with a john deere 50ft hinged draper front

Wow in 1998 you bought a new combine with 2 heads for the price of an fd250. That machine is eating it up.
It is amazing how prices have changed. The equipment has grown up size and ability too. In 1998 30ft on the header and 250 bu. on the combine we’re as big as it went.
What about the class 7 combines with 330 or 350 bu. tanks.@@bigtractorpower
Morning form michgin
Good morning. Thank you for watching.
Not sure if huge describes that head
Interesting video and conversation. What are the US laws on towing lengths, is this not a problem with 50ft headers?
Thank you for watching. Good question. There are no laws restricting the length of farm equipment. At 50ft this header on a transport wagon is as long as typical semi truck.
@@bigtractorpower thank you, that is handy! What a blessing for farmers to be able to move around freely with large machinery.
👍 👍
😁👍
Yessir 😂
We run a 35ft john deere Draper head
Very nice.
He is a moving along fast, gosh
This harvesting team eats up the acres quickly.
wowww gede banget traktornya seperti mainannya aku
We run 2 FD 75s
Very nice.
That’s not even the big fendt lol they got one more bigger than that lol, but the head the same. Pretty rad lookin combines I like the gray

The reel looks like it's going too slow and pushing the plants over. It doesn't look like a clean cut. Where is the air reel?

How can a farmer ever pay for that combine.
The performance of harvesting the crop quickly and well is big plus. This farm raises winter winter wheat and double crop soybeans. Soybeans are planted right behind the combine as its harvesting wheat. Two crops from one field in one year is a big help.
Most farmers run a lease program through their local dealership. Lease a unit for 2-3 years and when it ends they lease another (possibly newer) machine. I doubt most farmers are writing a check for the full cost of the combine and head.
I should clarify. Most large scale farmers might do this. Smaller guys may not, but nothing wrong with that.
I think fendt took a class 9 and labeled it a class 8.
FD75/35

You can’t really fold a platform like that
